There is a URL for that image, maldita computadora!

Hola, it is me again, Dead Phoenix. I just came back from school, y estoy enojado!

No, I an not pissed because of the uptight work we have there, it is because I still cannot get an avatar!
I followed Skyshot's instruction and now have a .GIF image.
And when I try saving it at the URL box, I still get more problems. "Error - Cannot find an image at the specified URL. Please make sure that you have entered a valid URL." What is wrong? Answer quick pleas.

PS: Sorry for making two threads in a single day. I won't do that anymore after this is solved.

Post what you're trying to use as an avatar. Also have you tried just uploading it from your computer to here?

Mainly this.

It has the right size (64X64) and less than 19.5 KB. And please, do not tell me to use a different image because it still tells me the same thing...

I uploaded it to my ImageShack account and successfully set it as my avatar, as you can see. (Only to show it works. Once yours is working, I'll go back to my lovely game face.) If this doesn't work, I'm not sure what will.

Use this url -- http://img95.imageshack.us/img95/426/dpavatarsb7.gif

(Offhand, this would have been more appropriate in the last thread, since it's the same basic issue. Just how things work around here.)

Alright, finally it seems to work out very fine. I don't really see it glitch, so that problem might have stopped. Thank God.

Muchas gracias Skyshot. I appreciate your help.

Now, please let this thread die, along with the one I made earlier. If it's bumped by somebody, let a mod lock it please. Once again, thanks man.
